  1. Still driving around in your Corrado! :shock: Am I the only one to have thought it :D I just turned 33 in July and I feel like I only have another couple of years in me until something more grown up modern may have to be bought. Had the C for almost 7 years after all. Not too sure what I would replace it with! However a Z4 coupe with a nice 6 cyclinder would maybe do the trick I reckon. Matt
  2. Thanks for the reply much appreciated, that is great news. Lets hope they do fit anyway as they will look lurvely! :D Matt
  3. Hello! Sorry sure these wheel questions have been done to death. BUT.....can someone just put my mind at ease that a 17x7.75 ET30 wheel will fit my VR6? Im sure it will but I just dont trust my mathematics!!! :D Dont really want to roll the arches either but maybe I would anyway :lol: Really need to get back to seller tonight if anyone could give me a heads up Thankyou in advance Matt
  4. Not really seen anyone running 7.75 inch wheels on rear with an ET30 offset. I know 8 inch will rub now and again but is that extra .25 of an inch to get no rub on std arches. Anyone running this set up? Ta Matt :-)
  5. Enquiring minds want to know if it will kill the handling? Thanks Matt :-)
  6. Thanks all Pipe is attached but I didnt blow down it, will give it a go. The locking pin will go up with the key in the drivers door, but even with the key in the lock it still wants to be pulled back down into the locked position again. I think I am beginning to think it may be an actual lock mechanism problem??? So will try lubing it and then see how much a new lock unit is. Thanks both for the replies Matt :-)
  7. Update! Everything opens ok with key from passenger door Fuses ok Alarm box contacts ok micro switch in drivers handle and latch ok vacuum pump ok So blimey knows whats up! Something is still pulling down the drivers lock and locking the car???? Anyone have any further ideas before I take it to an electrical place? Thanks Matt
  8. Ok lots of these threads but cannot see a similar problem to mine unfortunately. Car is 95 VR6 and has std Scorpion alarm fitted. Problem is that central locking will close using fob and key but only open with key and you have to force it as the locks keep wanting to go back down into locked position again. Checked pump in boot and seems ok. So am i looking at a vacuum hose issue or something else? Any ideas to narrow it down would be greatly appreciated as i dont want to pay a lot of money for someone to go through every conceivable fault option! Thanks Matt
  9. Nice one thanks for the reply. I think you are right adaptors are 25mm. i dont really want to go to hassle of rolling arches, so i guess they are out. Unless anyone is running something similar ok?????????????????? Cheers Matt
  10. Whoops forgot to say they are 7 inches wide Ta Matt
  11. Will a 16 inch wheel 5x112 offset 35 fit ok on my VR6 with adaptors or will the offset be too much :? I wish I could work these things out myself, but I cant! Thanks in advance Matt :)
  12. That looks hard as nails with the LM's on! Keep em they look different but bloody nice!! Matt
  13. Cheers guys, running Koni Eibach (to be changed to Koni H&R soon) oh and its on a VR6 so 5 stud :-) Matt
  14. Thanks although I read loads of threads on here I'm still not entirely sure about what wheels fit ok and what dont. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Oh and if I was stretching 205 section tyres over these would they be alright???? Many Thanks Matt
  15. Nice one I knew you wouldnt let me down :bounce2: Cheers Matt
  16. Apologies for my lack of wheel fitting knowledge I just cant get my head around it all :D Can anyone tell me how I will get on with the above, before I fit them? Many Thanks Matt :compress:
  17. I dont think they will fit a mk3. They should I think fit a mk2 though. Sure Vince at Stealth fitted mk2 koni shocks to my VR6 anyway. Same chassis after all is it not? Matt :-)

    P21S is definately not overated it is very good and to be honest almost exactly the same as basic Zymol. Matt
  20. Hmmmm its not that light I really want sub 18lb if I can get them. My sisters Evo has 18's that are bomb proof and only weigh 19lb. Why can't the Germans make light rims like the Japs! Matt :)
  21. a set sold on UK ebay this morning for £80. gutted i missed them by 10mins. I was going to get those but thought they would cost a LOT to sort. Plus the seller wouldnt reply to mu emails regards the crashed wheel and wether the centre was buckled. So after my recent experiences with my VW VSR I thought I woud give them a miss, then again £80! :( Liking the wheels on the felgen site! Might see if I can get a wanted on there for 4 x qty 8" 16's in 5/100 8) Nobody like the Carline CM6 rims then????? I thought they were to coin a phrase lush! Matt
  22. Yep its the way I'm heading I think if I cant make my mind up. Theres just an annoying voice in my head saying buy the 17's, buy the 17's :evil: Matt
